My concept of the Glory Days would be between 1918 and 1930.

I have done, via Amtrak, Pittsburgh to Chicago (both directions), Chicago to 
Seattle, Seattle to LA, LA to Chicago (both directions), LA to Sacramento, 
Sacramento to Chicago, Chicago to Washington, DC via New River Gorge, DC to 
Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh to Philadelphia (both directions) and Lorton, VA to 
Sanford, FL.

The mountain grandeur of the west is spectacular, but riding a dome car (not
Superliner) from Washington to Pittsburgh was a real treat.  And this is
coming from a died in the wool PRR fan!
